A young couple decided to
get married. Some months before their wedding, the bride met an accident and
her face got completely disfigured.
"I can't marry you,” she wrote to her fiance. “I will stay sharp and ugly forever. Find yourself another beautiful young woman as you deserve. I'm not worthy of you anymore!"
Few days later she received this answer from her fiancé -
"Whoever is truly shameful is me, I thrust in that following to eye disease, the doctor just told me that I will stay blind! If despite this, you want to accept me, I still want to marry you! "
They got married at that time, the fiance was totally blind. They lived 20 years in joy and understanding. She was his guide and became his eyes and light. One day, she became seriously ill and was dying. She regretted living him alone in the darkness. The day she died, he opened his eyes to the astonishment of all.
"I was not blind,” he said. “I pretended that I was blind, for distressed her in the thought that I will see her face disfigured.”
